tBBP Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I think the most popular vote for change is the white facemask and orange pants idea. Ill tell you why i hate itIt looks like a college team. When you start putting bright colors at the top of the color hierarchy you add youthfulness and energy to the uniform and the white mask contrast adds to it. It looks like something that would be appropiate for Clemson or even Bowling Green. It looks nothing like a Pro uniform to me Yeah, those are good points. The orange pants/white mask look, to me, basically describes the optimal Fighting Illini look. I wouldn't mind orange pants as a once or twice a year change up, mostly on the road same as a pair of brown pants that actually match (stripes, dammit). But the orange helmet over brown jersey over white pants is an NFL classic. And the gray mask was such an obvious improvement over the loud white mask keeping it would be a must.Please no brown pants, i probably hate those more than I should but they just look so disgusting to me Ehhh, wouldn't be TOO bad if done the right way..../shameless plug alert *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soarindude Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 To be fair, Bowling Green already has awesome uniforms. That'd be a downgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Their current uniform is a downgrade from the previous set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmhtfld Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Sorry for the self promotion but I think something along the lines of this would be a good update for the Browns without being too flashy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hailstateunis Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Sorry for the self promotion but I think something along the lines of this would be a good update for the Browns without being too flashy.This is great. The sleeve stripes are very, very good. Only thing is would change is the number font and the facemask color. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayFinkle Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Those ^^^^^ are damn near perfect.Like the other poster said, drop the orange face masks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmhtfld Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Ok here is a version with a Brown facemask. I also tried to eliminate some of the orange in other parts of the uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJAnfield Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Am I the only one that thinks the Browns will update the current "logo" helmet to a Revo Speed?They need to eliminate the helmet logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 If they just went back to this, I can dig it. I like the option of the orange pants. I may be in the minority, but I actually really liked those orange jerseys too Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRicSlick Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I may be in the minority, but I actually really liked those orange jerseys tooI would look much nicer without the drop show on the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Scorcho Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 The stubbornness over the helmet logo is one of the stranger traditionalisms in all of sports.I quite like the Brown and Orange colour scheme and i'm looking forward to see what they do with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmd9 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 It's okay for Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Army, Navy and Boston College to use helmets without logos. But it's completely unacceptable for the Browns to do the same. It just goes back to "They suck so their traditions don't matter" logic. I don't know why they ever got rid of the orange pants to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 You will never convince me that the gray facemask is a better option than white. NEVER!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo50 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Facemask colour debate aside, I for one hope they keep the helmet as is. In my world there is something very respectable... dignified, about a logo-less helmet. Keep it real, Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canzman Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Sorry for the self promotion but I think something along the lines of this would be a good update for the Browns without being too flashy.These are very nice and similar to a concept I put up a while back. One thing I will point out is the NFL require the NFL shield on the pants where you currently have the <=C=> logo. You will need to update your concept to account for this.

JackieMoon Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Another team folding into Nike's horrible redesign. The league is losing track of what it once was. If I were a Cleveland Fan I would be utterly pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
